Boasting About Tomorrow (JAS 4:13-17)

[4:13] Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—

[4:14] yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.

[4:15] Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”

[4:16] As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

[4:17] So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
